Letter to the Community 2010
Dear Friends,
We are 146 years strong and so very proud of our great history! Today we celebrate this past year’s successes where we served more than 50,000 people and were able to provide over $1.7 million in financial assistance and program subsidies to our children, youth and families.
We continue to create new ways to have a greater impact and remain relevant in the communities that we serve. Over this past year we have joined together with Ys across the country to better deliver our programs and to share our mission. We introduced our new logo and we have become much more focused in the delivery of our programs and services using the Y’s three focus areas – Youth Development, Healthy Living and Social Responsibility. Our work has not changed, yet we have become better at communicating our impact and outcomes. By sharing our cause and enhancing our partnerships we will have greater reach throughout the 41 diverse communities that we serve in Central Massachusetts.
We have strengthened our focus for Youth Development through our Early Education and After School programs where we promote individual and academic achievement. We enriched our youth programming to keep our teens safe, engaged and encouraged. We continue to help youth discover who they are and all that they can be.
We have strengthened our focus for Healthy Living by committing to teaching our members and others how to live longer and healthier lives by being active and engaged.
We have strengthened our focus for Social Responsibility by continuing to give back to our community and by providing support to our neighbors.
Together we Strengthen the Foundations of our Community and remain committed to our men, women, and children to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive at the Y regardless of age, income or background.
We are so thankful for all of you – our donors, volunteers and staff as well as our members and community partners, all of whom enable our Y to make a real difference in the lives of so many.
With great appreciation,
Kathryn Zingg Hunter
